DEMANDROIDS GROUP INVITER CONFIGURATION PARAMETERS

This page contains a list of the available configuration parameters that can be used in the configuration notecard(s) in Demandroids group inviter signs, along with a description of each parameter. More information about the Demandroids group inviter system can be found via the home page for the system. Related information can also be found on the Advanced Features page.

The notecard given to you by your droid when you invite it to join your group contains just two lines. The first line contains your group's SL UUID key prefixed by "group=" and the second line contains the droid's own SL UUID key prefixed by "droid=". Each of these lines defines a configuration parameter for your sign(s). You can also have comment lines and blank lines in your configuration notecard(s). A comment line is created by putting a hash character (#) at the beginning of the line. Blank lines and comment lines are simply ignored by the script. All other lines must follow this simple format:
<paramenter name> = <parameter value>
where <paramenter name> is the name of one of the parameters as listed below, and <parameter value> is the value for that paramter. Different parameters accept different kinds of values. The equals sign between the name and the value is required, but the spaces around the equals sign are not necessary. Any number of spaces CAN appear to either side of the equals sign, but they will all simply be ignored by the script.

droid
The value for this parameter must be a SL UUID for a Demandroids droid avatar. This is the droid to which the sign will send 'invite' and 'roles' commands.

group
The value for this parameter must be a SL UUID for a group. This is the group that avatars touching the sign will be invited to join. This parameter is optional. If it is not included in the sign's configuration, then the sign's own group must be set correctly, either by wearing the right group tag when rezzing the sign, or through the Edit dialog.

role
The value for this parameter must be a SL UUID for a role in the group. This is the role to which avatars touching the sign will be added. This parameter is optional. If it is omitted then avatars will just be added to the "Everyone" role. You can get a list of the groups roles along with the key for each role by touching a sign that you own and then clicking on the "Roles" button in the dialog that pops up.

text
The value for this parameter can be anything that doesn't include any equals signs. The value of this parameter will appear above the sign as floating text. This parameter is optional. If it is omitted then no floating text will appear.

rotate
The value for this parameter must be a "floating point" number. This sets the speed that the sign rotates around its vertical (z) axis. The speed is in radians per second. The deafult speed for the rotating sign provided in the boxed set is 1.0 radians per second. This parameter is optional. If it is omitted then the sign will not rotate, except in the case of the rotating sign, which will rotate at its default speed of 1.0 radians per second.
